Feminine and glamourous

Posted on Wed, 20 Apr 2016 by KiM

I was surprised to realize that we have never featured the fabulous style of Paloma Contreras of La Dolce Vita Blog. This project is my favourite of hers and showcases her aesthetic – traditional with a modern and glamourous twist. A definite feminine vibe that is elegant, refined and timeless.

Industrial chic

Posted on Sun, 17 Apr 2016 by KiM

When I spotted this home on Shoot Factory I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Industrial chic style with beautiful architectural details with white painted exposed brick and wood panelling and moldings in every nook and cranny. Paint some of it black and I am having heart palpitations. Add a marble countertop and I can hardly breathe. (Blakes London seems to have had something to do with this).

The vision of Pierce & Ward

“They knew that chic should never be shabby. They knew that glamour was essential but never at the cost of comfort. They knew instinctively that romances could be made richer, inspirations clearer, and futures brighter if surrounded by undeniable beauty.”

Welcome to the magical mystery tour that is the portfolio of Nashville-based Pierce & Ward.

Family townhouse redo

Posted on Fri, 8 Apr 2016 by midcenturyjo

“The Lorimer Street Townhouse is a three-story, twenty-five foot wide, two-family house located in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn. Every wall, ceiling, stair, floor and window of the house was replaced in the extensive renovation. The result is an open, loft-like home for a family of four. A custom, steel and solid wood tread stair divides the Parlor Level into a Living Room side at the street front and a Dining and Kitchen side at the rear of the building with garden access through 3 new, patio doors. Existing wood joists were exposed on the Parlor Level with insulation added to the underside of the floors above. Reclaimed floors compliment the existing joists and add to the rustic feel of this urban home.”

A massive redo but the results are outstanding. Love the bathroom. Love the industrial vibe of the exposed ceilings, those floors and the central steel staircase. By Elizabeth Roberts and Ensemble Architecture.


Living the Tuscan dream

Posted on Tue, 5 Apr 2016 by KiM

Atop a picturesque Tuscan hillside is this absolutely sublime stone and brick home that I have completely fallen in love with. Another project by the incredibly talented Elodie Sire of D.mesure. The original architectural details are beautiful in and of themselves with those beams! those stone arches! but the decor heightens the fabulousness of this home. And OMG how many bathrooms are there?! I adore each one and had to feature them all so pardon the lack of photo editing here. I am sure you won’t mind. 😉
